Abstract

As part of an EU-funded Interreg III project, teacher trainers at IUFM de L'académie de Rouen and Canterbury Christ Church University shared insights and experiences in training teachers in relation to environmental issues, European languages, literacy and European Citizenship. Four cross-national groups have worked together to find common ground as well as to learn from our different approaches. The differences in relation to Citizenship were considerable, not least due to curricular history the nature and focus of each country’s national curriculum, and to the structure of teacher training and are outlined here.
